Abstract :This study explores student engagement in a Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) designed to teach advanced-level speaking in English. The course, with over 200,000 students enrolled, was offered on the Coursera platform. Learners’ engagement with course elements in relation to their performance in the course was analyzed with a view to improving course design and activities. The results point to positive effects of quiz completion, peer assessment as well as video watching on course performance.Keywords : Massive open online course, speaking in a second language, student engagement
